Hypervalent iodine-based aminating reagents containing a transferable (diarylmethylene)amino group can be used for the α-amination of simple carbonyl compounds such as esters, amides, and ketones in presence lithium base. A snapshot unique coupling an α-carbonyl radical with iminyl this amination is given by motif spacecraft docking space station. More information found Research Article K. Kiyo...

A copper(I)-catalyzed, (diacetoxyiodo)benzene [PhI(OAc)2]-mediated ring-expansion/thiolactonization of a-oxo ketene dithioacetals was efficiently realized via azidation of the internal olefinic C@H bond with sodium azide under mild conditions. Sequential amination, ring-expansion rearrangement, and thiolactonization occurred to form aminated thiolactones in the presence of acetic anhydride as t...

A convenient zinc(II) chloride-catalyzed regioselective propargylation/amination/cycloisomerization process has been developed for the synthesis of substituted pyrrole derivatives from propargylic acetates, enoxysilanes and primary amines. Various aromatic and aliphatic propargylic acetates participate well in the reaction, providing the propargylation/amination/cycloisomerization products in g...

We developed a novel (S)-L-phenylalanine derived-bidentate chiral diaminophosphine oxide (DIAPHOX) preligand (S,S(P))-9b, which was successfully applied to Pd-catalyzed asymmetric allylic alkylation and amination. Using the Pd-(S,S(P))-9b catalyst system, asymmetric allylic alkylation and amination proceeded very smoothly, affording the corresponding products in excellent yield with high enanti...

An operationally simple and concise synthesis of anilinoethanolamines, as NMDA NR2B receptor antagonist ifenprodil analogues, was developed via a copper-catalyzed amination of the corresponding bromoarene. Coupling was achieved with linear primary alkylamines, alpha,omega-diamines, hexanolamine and benzophenone imine, as well as with aqueous ammonia, in good yields using CuI and N,N-diethylsali...

Waste glycerol was converted to secondary amines in a one pot reaction, using Clostridium butyricum and catalytic hydrogen transfer-mediated amination.

We have developed a general strategy for the synthesis of 2,5-syn disubstituted pyrrolidines that is based on the multi-faceted reactivity of the sulfone moiety and a 5-endo-trig cyclisation. This methodology was applied to the synthesis of indolizidine alkaloid monomorine I. Two factors were key to the success of this endeavour; the first was the choice of nitrogen protecting group whilst the ...

This feature article provides an overview of the application of organic azides for the intermolecular amination of sp(3) and sp(2) C-H bonds. The catalytic activity of several metal complexes was reviewed underlining both synthetic and mechanistic aspects of the C-H amination. The majority of the aminated compounds reported in literature have been collected in this paper to provide a compendium...

PEI modified graphene oxide (GOPEI) is prepared by tandem MW amination–microfiltration and used for arsenic removal from water.

A novel, efficient and practical method for copper-catalysed oxidative C-3 amination of quinoxalin-2(1H)-ones with primary or secondary amines as the nitrogen sources has been developed. A wide variety of 3-aminoquinoxalin-2(1H)-ones were prepared in up to 98% yield with good functional group tolerance for 24 examples. This synthetic strategy features atom economy, concise steps, easy operation...
